Pretty Yende - Three And Thirty Years Lyrics

Three and thirty years I tried
To forget all the tears I cried
Then one who knew me long ago
Appeared upon my lonely road

Warning me of trouble soon
And talking me of pending doom
Then all at once he disappeared
And left me in a tomb of fear

Pray in silence, brave the cold
A son, a mother, priest and robe
Will hold The Word until their sleep
A dove will fly above the keep

Now forever life is gone
Beholden to a sacred song
The sun will too late understand
That dark consumes the light of man
That dark consumes the light of man
